Today's the Day the Zed's Gone

[Mint]

Went down to see her again today. The front & rear bumpers, new sills and door mirrors are finished and the rest has been primed:

Also the wheels are back from being refurbished, they look like new:

 

[Grumps]

Looking like it's heading the right way Dave. It'll be back before you know it.

 

[Grumps]

They look brill! It's all coming together mate.

How long does the paintshop estimate it will take to finish the car? Dave. I bet you can't wait to have it back together again and at home.

Dave are you ever going to take it out of the garage?

 

[M666BMG]

Good stuff Dave, where did you get the sills?

 

[Antm72]

When I dropped her off I said no rush as I want a good job. They reckon about another week. Could do with a dry day to bring her home again though

 

[Mint]

Dave are you ever going to take it out of the garage?

Jim, of course I will. I think you knew that already, having joined you on your cruises. Cars are designed to be driven not stored.

 

[Mint]

Good stuff Dave, where did you get the sills?

Official BMW dealer in Stafford. Don't ask how much

 

[Mrs Mint]

Dave are you ever going to take it out of the garage

I'll reply to that....... the answer is no, we'll just look at and maybe have open days for the rest of you to come and see

I think I would do the same, it is going to look "fabulous darling" when it is done, very envious

 

[Brian H]

Just a thought Dave ?

 

[Grumps]

How much!

 

[M666BMG]

How much!

Yes how much because I want some

 

[Mint]

Just a thought Dave ?

Thanks Brian, they have already said the sills and chassis will be thoroughly wax oiled so I hope the area you indicate will be done. I'll mention sealant as well.

 

[EnthuZiaZT]

So Dave, have you picked the Zed up yet. Bet you wish you had told the paint shop to be quick about it, now.

Come on Dave we want to see the pictures.

All in good time Mike. We're having a bit of a mare of a time with Mum and hospitals at the moment so I'm afraid the Zed has had to take a back seat for a while. Had a phone call from the guy doing the spraying asking what black do I want the front kidney grills doing. The options were; gloss, satin or matt. The guys in the spray shop recommended gloss so I've gone with that as I can always change them if I don't like them. Won't be long now...
